Kim – Germany

The trip today was really really great ! Marc and Nathalie were really great, lots of informations and the really tried to show us the best spots in the ocean. In the End we were about 6-7 times in the water and saw lots of dolphins. For the next time I would prepare my self better with some underwater camera gadgets. We would definitely do it again.

I was really swimming with a mask with dolphins! This was absolutely amazing experience! Try it. Don’t expect to be close to them, but expect to see them under the water all around you!
